Abstract

For an infinite iterated function system f\mathbf{f} on [0,1][0,1] with an attractor Λ(f)\Lambda(\mathbf{f}) and for an infinite subset DND\subseteq \mathbb{N}, consider the set E(f,D)={xΛ(f):an(x)D for all nN and limnan=}. \mathbb E(\mathbf{f},D)= \{ x \in \Lambda(\mathbf{f}): a_n(x)\in D \text{ for all }n\in\mathbb N \text{ and }\lim_{n\to\infty} a_n=\infty\}. For a function φ:N[minD,)\varphi:\mathbb{N}\to [\min D, \infty) such that φ(n)\varphi(n)\to\infty as nn\to\infty, we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set S(f,D,φ)={x\E(f,D):an(x)φ(n) for all nN}. S(\mathbf{f},D,\varphi) = \left\{ x\in \E(\mathbf{f},D) : a_n(x)\leq \varphi(n) \text{ for all } n\in\mathbb N \right\}. We prove that the Hausdorff dimension stays the same no matter how slowly the function φ\varphi grows. One of the consequences of our result is the recent work of Takahasi (2023), which only dealt with regular continued fraction expansions. We further extend our result to slowly growing products of (not necessarily consecutive) digits.
